Instructions
Unwrap and crush four of your Ferrero Rocher chocolates, leaving three intact. Set aside.
To make your pancake batter, melt some butter and let it cool. In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and brown sugar, mix. In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk, egg and vanilla extract, whisk together. Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking as you go. Slowly pour in the melted butter and mix the batter until smooth and there are no lumps.
To make the caramel sauce, add butter and brown sugar to a small cast iron pan on the plancha. Stir and let the butter and sugar melt together. Add in the cream and vanilla extract, stir. Allow to bubble and reduce, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat.
Butter the plancha and make your pancakes. I used four for one serving. Use about 1/3 cup of batter for each pancake. Once you see bubbles on the surface of the batter and the edges have started to turn golden brown, flip and cook through another 1 to 2 minutes.
Add a heaping tablespoon of Nutella to three of the pancakes and stack them on top of each other, with the naked pancake on top.
Place the stack on pancakes on a plate and drizzle with caramel sauce, sprinkle on the chopped up Ferrero Rocher and place the three whole ones on top of the stack. Drizzle with some more caramel sauce.
